Knowing this is enough to know how important it is to choose the right and the most-reliable builder who will suit your needs.

There are various builders in Kolkata, so the following points are guidelines for choosing the right builder for your home.

Experience:

The number of projects handled by the builder is an important factor to consider while choosing the right one for your home. Not just that, an experienced builder will have enough knowledge about the industry and the evolving architecture.

Prior Successes:

If a builder has been in the market, has consistently performed and has good reviews, one can be rest-assured that they are offering good quality service.

Ongoing projects:

If they have a lot of projects in hand, it speaks of their efficiency, but it will also tell you if they have enough time and resources to take up a new client.

Testimonials of the existing customers:

Getting reviews from existing customers will help you get perspective on the builder’s work. From the work they do to how sustained their work can be.

Accreditations:

Look into the license of the builder, their authenticity and certification. Alongside, it is always advisable to know about any litigations or legal embroilments of the builder.

Banks collaborations:

Most builders tie up with banks for offering services like home loans. Projects approved by banks, especially Nationalised Banks are comparatively more reliable.

Budget:

The estimated budget provided by the builder will be based on historical hard costs and the prevailing market prices. Make sure, the estimation is thorough and there are no loopholes in it. It says a lot about how trusted they can be.

Flexibility:

How open to changes in design are they, what does the process look like and how much additional charges will they add to the budget. If your builder is too rigid and does not give proper attention to your needs, the collaboration is bound to fail.

Planning and Architecture:

A builder who has a portfolio of diverse projects, in terms of aesthetics and architecture will have the upper hand. Look into the spatial planning of the existing and proposed projects to ascertain what they have to offer.

Quality checking:

Your builder must maintain time schedules and keep a check on the quality and progress of work, make sure you know how involved your builder is. Make sure you have access to quality checking guidelines, regular updates on the progress of the construction of your home.

Post-Service Terms:

A well-planned and well-built home should ideally come with a post-occupation service system. Maintenance of the amenities for a fixed period must be a part of the contractual agreement made by builders.
